Encourage to turn to a snack (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eggroll

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a snack' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'encourage to turn' is the wordplay.
'encourage' becomes 'egg'.
'to turn' becomes 'roll' (rolling is a kind of turning).
'egg'+'roll'='EGGROLL'

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for eggroll that I've seen is " fare".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
